HBO seems to be quite lucky when it comes to picking the best of all. After Game of Thrones' finale that received mixed responses from critics and viewers alike, the channel is back with its new reality drama, Chernobyl. The show that revolves around the tragic Chernobyl disaster in Ukraine highlights the efforts taken by men and women to lessen and lighten its overall impact. While it's a limited series with barely five episodes, the viewers are already hooked on to it and it's current IMDB rating has surpassed the records once held by The Wire, Breaking Bad and even Game of Thrones. Kalank: The IMDB Score of Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt’s Film Is LOWER Than Salman Khan’s Race 3 and Aamir Khan’s Thugs of Hindostan!

HBO's new series Chernobyl is currently the highest rated TV series on IMDB with 52,000 votes and 9.7 ratings. Now you can't really rely on these ratings and its fan voting has ample of issues, yet, the new series along with the others deserve to find a place in the list of top 10 shows. Here are the rest of the top ten shows of all time according to the site. Salman's Bharat BEATS Ajay's De De Pyaar De and Tiger's SOTY 2 to be the Most Anticipated Indian Movie on IMDB.

Twitterati is currently going gaga over this new show. The viewers are lauding this brilliant saga that perfectly describes the horrific impact of the 1986 nuclear disaster. Of course, the show won't return with its second season as the story is not fictional and cannot be played or tampered with. So go ahead and watch it when you have some free time. It's highly recommended.
